Yeah but we don't get 8 million in cap room if we cut him. Only about 3-4 milliom

Johnson counts 10 million dollars against the salary cap next season and only 4 million of that is what's left of his signing bonus. It would cost us 4 million to cut CJ which would net us 6 million in cap room.

It would cost us 6 million to cut him saving us 4. Not worth it to me. His potential as we saw today is too good. We just need to figure out how to get him like that all year.

Just saw a bunch of Jim Wyatt tweets. Good stuff, but on my phone and can't link them all, hopefully someone can. Says not to be so sure that we cut cj. If anyone would have inside info, it would be him.

If he has 4 million left on his signing bonus how does it cost us 6? The cap hit of a cut player is the signing bonus which is broken up over 5 years. After a player is cut his signing bonus accelerates and any guaranteed money left counts against the cap.

Johnson is owed 2 million in 2014 and 2015 as part of his 13 million dollar signing bonus but that is all the guaranteed money he has left on his contract. So how does cutting him cost us 6 million dollars?
